In a nationwide cohort, only 33% of patients received drug class combinations supported by guidelines, showing a gap in adherence.
Treatment persistence varied significantly, with only 17-53% of younger patients remaining on therapy after one year compared to 59-87% of older patients.
SPCs were linked to improved long-term persistence, emphasizing the potential benefits of combination treatments at the start of therapy.
The predominant treatment for hypertension remains monotherapy, which may contribute to lower persistence rates, especially among younger populations.
